I had the same issue in 9.04, but installing libpoppler-data resolved it.

As my latest comment i stated that somebody with a japanese environment needs to forward this upstream since the upstream developers are probably going to ask for more info regarding the rendering i don't have a japanese env and have no idea about symbols, so please can someone forward it? thanks. -- EVINCE, KPDF, ePDFviewer, and KGhostView cannot display any Japanese characters in PDF documents, when XPDF (with the xpdf-japanese plugin) can do it. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197188 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Hola Pedro, what is the "japanese rendering" info that you need? how can we provide it?

I confirmed the bug for Gutsy. However, on Hardy it's working with EVINCE, KPDF, and ePDFviewer (not KGhostView: blank pages) ON CONDITION that I install "poppler-data" as Sebastien Bacher said. So as an improvement for Hardy, I suggest that: the "poppler-data" library should be added into the Japanese langage packages dependencies.

[Bug 197188] Re: EVINCE, KPDF, ePDFviewer, and KGhostView cannot display any Japanese characters in PDF documents, when XPDF (with the xpdf-japanese plugin) can do it.
I have a similar PDF (which unfortunately I cannot share), and neither Evince nor KPDF could display it. xpdf did, luckily. I installed poppler-data, and as a result, KPDF indeed displayed the document differently. However, by no means would I say that it displayed it correctly. Most of the text just disappeared, and of the rest, some words were readable, but most of it remained gibberish. Strange that such a bug would only get low importance.

Thanks for your answer, I will check it this weekend.
Here is another file ("applicationJP.pdf) that can't be displayed with
NONE of the Ubuntu viewers (NEITHER XPDF in this case). I had to open it
with AcrobatReader+JapPack on WindowsXP. It's not the first time that
happens to me. I'm surprised that Japanese users didn't report this bug
before. Please could you check with the Japanese LoCo Team?
In my previous post, I meant "I canNOT find a way to install
AcrobatReader8 Japanese pack"
(http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/acrrasianfontpackthanks.html?hasjavascript=0&Version=Adobe+Reader+8&Language=Japanese&Platform=Linux)
--> please could you help me?

I can confirm this. I am using kpdf and when opening files such as the one above, it just displays garbage.
